    I run multiple scopes/red dots off the one rifle using either Warne or Leupold rings. Both hold zero fine, well within minute of animal on ground. I've also used a set of cheaper Konus return to zero QD rings and they've worked perfectly too.

    Either Warne or Leupold both guarantee theirs so would go with either of them.

    Note however, not sure if I'd recommend these for longer shots? This platform is a 300m max rifle, though I largely shoot inside 100m. I can comfortably do so on this rig out to 250m.

    Edit: to achieve the above results, all rings and rails are mounted to precise measured torques with a gunsmiths torque wrench. Scopes are also initially mounted and set up with scope mounting levels to eliminate as much margin of error as possible. Whilst doing so the rifle is also locked in a vice and leveled so that everything lines up.
